Regulatory Affairs News

06.11.2025

Swissmedic

 

Swissmedic has published version 1.1 of the Information Sheet on Systems and Procedure Packs (SPP), featuring minor editorial changes and the addition of a notable example in Chapter 4.1: specimen collection kits are considered Procedure Packs. 

Swissmedic’s position is misaligned with the note in chapter 2.6.1 of MDCG 2024-11 on the qualification of in-vitro diagnostic devices (IVD), which indicates that the qualification as either a Procedure Pack, according to the MDR, or an IVD Kit, according to the IVDR, should be based on the intended purpose of the whole product combination and that a Procedure Pack should not have an intended purpose that corresponds to Article 2(2) IVDR.

Moreover, Swissmedic’s position is also different from MDCG 2020-16 rev.4 on the classification of IVDs which considers kits intended for specimen collection by lay persons to be Class A IVDs, per rule 5(c).

This unfortunate position from Swissmedic may result in the diverging regulatory status of a same specimen collection kit in Switzerland and in the EU.

 

MedTech Europe

 

Medtech Europe has published a joint position paper on Digital label for authorised representative and importer, which urges the European Commission to allow details regarding the EU Authorised Representative and EU importer to be provided digitally, rather than solely on the physical label.

European Commission

 

The last amendment to the official list of Harmonised Standards (i.e. Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2078 of 17 October 2025) only introduced standards relative to surgical clothing and drapes, medical face masks, and  low temperature steam and formaldehyde sterilizers. It is however important to be aware that a new Consolidated List of HS under the EU MDR is now available.

 

Swissmedic

 

The information sheet for the cosmetic sector – Parenterals without an intended medical purpose is newly published, which provides guidance on some borderline topics. Although it is intended as a pharmaceutical/cosmetic borderline guideline, it covers injectables that can also be Annex XVI products and clarifies how such products qualify as regards enforcement and provides an overview and guidance for professionals, particularly those working in the cosmetic sector. 

03.10.2025

Swissmedic

 

The swissdamed User Guide UDI Devices Module V.2 has been published, featuring the addition of Chapter 8, “Discard UDIs”:

  • Registered UDI-DIs may be discarded if they contain incorrect data that cannot be corrected via an update.
  • A reason must be provided when discarding the UDIs
  • The discarded UDIs will be listed in the “My UDIs” section

 

EU Commission

 

The EU Commission’s consultation process on the draft guidance and form for reporting serious incidents for high-risk AI systems under the AI Act is running until November 7th. The final guidance and form shall become applicable on August 2nd, 2026.

For medical devices and IVDs, this reporting would only apply to infringement of fundamental rights that significantly interfere with Charter-protected rights on a large scale, as all other serious incidents relative to AI-enabled medical device software would be routed through EU MDR/IVDR Vigilance.
